The only reason I've ever used bad kitty is for the mangle/trauma watcher. Everything else, I do myself.
I'll put it this way, the amount of attention required to do feral dps properly, is the same amount of attention required to drive properly.
It's your internal clock and attention span that is your problem.
Feral
1)watch self buffs
2)watch debuffs/bleeds
3)watch where you're standing
4)watch DBM
5)plan ahead
Driving
1)watch speed
2)watch people in front, to the sides, and behind you
3)stay in your lane
4)watch traffic control
5)know where you're going
Here's a tip, think about what you are doing and plan ahead. Keep your eyes moving, and don't crash.
I swear, half of you shouldn't be allowed on the road.....
The problem is #1. No one ever watches their speed, they expect everyone else to do it for them.
Here's a challenge for all of you with drivers licenses. Try to keep your eyes moving and obeying those 5 rules(which you are supposed to do constantly anyways) for a 3 hour drive continuously and tell me honestly how many times you got tired/lazy and stopped doing something "because there's no one there" or "it's assumed."

I just started heroics as feral DPS.
1. is there an addon that doesn't change the UI much and has a timer for mangle, rake and the other feral stuff, and maybe Combo point counter that u can put in the middle of the screen. I tried badkitty but i didn't like it.
2. I didn't c this in any stickies (the one's out of date). but for AoE pulls im guessing 3 or more. is it better to just Swipe spam or get a quick SR up.
3. Openers. is it better to just run up and start with the priority list, or stealth and pounce/ravage.
4. The Ashen Verdict stuff. where r the vendors for the rings. and how high does ur dps need to be to do rep farming. Can i get high enough of dps with just doing heroics to do rep farming. I mostly a pvp person and dont really want to raid to much.
Thanks in advance.
I use a mod called 'Need to Know' to track the duration of my Mangle, Rake and Rip debuffs aswell as the duration of my Savage Roar.
I tend to start with a 3 point SR on 3-4 Mobs, and a 4-5 point SR on 4+ Mobs, then just use swipe. It tends to increase my dps by about 30% on ~5 mobs.
I start with pounce often, but it yields little difference to starting with rake.
The vendors are inside the ICC Raid, and generally 10 man rep farms want around 4k dps, and 25 around 5k.

I use ForteXorcist myself, because it also notifies me of when my abilities miss (getting a parry as a tank, or FFF simply missing). It does require some slight tweaking though, since it's originally designed for locks, and if you don't disable a thing or 2 you'll get "too much" info.
I can also see who gets soulstones and DI, but that might be oRA2 and not ForteXorcist lol ^_^
Also, for any druid, Druidannounces is tha bomb! It whispers people you innervate, gives raid warnings when you battle res etc. Sure, it's not a
must
, but pretty damn handy.
... dear god, I've gone from someone who shunted away from addons (didn't even use Omen or DBM when raiding Naxx), to someone who's an addon **** o_O

I've heard lots of good things about FeralByNight but personally I don't really like it.
I'm using DoTimer to track all my DoTs, buffs and debuffs. With
a lot
of customization you can even get them into a single neat timer list that will tell you everything you need to know in an easy to see way.
But I guess getting used to FeralByNight is way easier.

I like Droodfocus for timers. You can now customize all features and skin it, and it has blood splatters :)
I just manually download it from curse and have had no problems with it.
